Churn Dash Quilt – Quilts & Adventures

To Do Tuesday #178

I was having so much fun at the quilt retreat, I could not tear myself away from my sewing machine to write last week’s blog. So that means you will be bombarded with all that got done in a 6 day retreat (4 full days).

Yes. I will be linking up with Carol at Quilt Schmilt for this week’s To Do Tuesday linkup.

Welcome back my Quilty friends! Oh my goodness. The Electrician was here this past week installing more lights in the sewing studio. He only got a third done and I can’t believe how much better I can see. Can’t wait until they finish all of it this week! Let there be LIGHT!💡 Also switching out halogen for led as well as yellow for white. So much brighter. I did not even realize how much I have been straining my eyes. So very nice! Okay, let’s talk quilting.

I will be linking up with Carol at Quilt Schmilt again this week for To Do Tuesday. Come check it out.

Rolling into my second week of March feeling real good about what I got accomplished last week. How about you? I had a great Friday on a zoom call with my quilty friends. It was a good day hanging out with friends.

I plan to link up with Carol at Quiltschmilt for To Do Tuesday. Just go to her last blog post for the current link.

Wow this week flew by! I can’t believe it is already Tuesday again. My calendar has been packed with “doing things”. Still attending a number of live Zoom seminars on various subjects which are interesting as well as meeting with vendors for my home as I gear up to do some sewing studio basic upgrades such as wiring and lights. Plus some shades for each of the sewing rooms. PNW is an interesting beast with the darker winters and the very light summers. When the sun shines, it is unbelievably blue skies. When it rains, we have some many shades of gray that nature provides that it could teach fabric & quilt designers a thing or two about color.

I will be linking up with Carol’s Schmilt To Do Tuesday again this week. Just click on Blog Post at the top of the page to find the link to To Do Tuesday for this week.

Rain. Rain. Rain. We are full on PNW winter now. We need the rain and the snow pack. I have not seen the sun often this past week, but it has peeked out 🌥️

It is here. ☔️. The rain has arrived here in the Pacific Northwest. We even had a little sleet yesterday. They said it would snow. I couldn’t see how that would happen. It is just not cold enough. The cool thing about the rain here is the sun often peeks out through out the day. 🌦️ So cool. I even seen the most amazing rainbows🌈

I plan to link up with Carol who is also in the Pacific Northwest just more North. Check out all the projects.

Hello Quilty Friends! Welcome back. This week started off with a bang and ended with a crash. LOL 🐿️. I got totally distracted with other crafty projects. Good news is I finished a few things on my artsy to do list as well as making some progress on my quilty to do list.

Hello my Quilty Friends! Welcome back. I had a good week in the sewing room. I made it up to the studio five of seven days which is a new record for me now that the studio is upstairs. I even had a Quilt Zoom day with my Quilty Friends.

Welcome to the last To Do Tuesday post of 2025! I may have a special post either December 31st or January 1st for WIPs and/or goals. Still toying with that one. I have been working on hitting the sewing studio daily for at least 15 minutes. I think I did 4 out of 7 this week. My goal is to be physically present in the space. There is still plenty of unpacking and organizing to do as well as sewing and quilting. So not bad this week.

To Do Tuesday #163

Welcome back my quilty friends! Hard to believe Christmas is upon us. I am looking forward to spending time with my daughter. We have lived in different states for over 10 years. Now we are in the same town. I feel like I hardly see her because we are both living our best lives. LOL! Being so close now, we don’t make the time to spend with each other like we did when we lived 3500+ miles apart. I am sure you can relate as well.

I started a new thing since we lasted chatted. I have made a mindful decision to go UPSTAIRS to my sewing studio at least once a day for at least 15 minutes. I have also told myself, I don’t have to sew if I don’t want to but I NEED to visit the studio.
